  I bought this new comp with windows 7 already installed. has worked fine up intill a week or two it y a. I installed a new game, and after installation, I press launch to play it and pop up with a message saying not sufficient privileges: you must be an administrator when you run this application for the first time. also, I thought that I must be the administrator when I tried to launch the disk defragmentation. my account is the administrator account so I don't understand why they say that.

I saw where someone said to try to add another admisistrator account to try to take on the former. but I had no luck with this ether.

I also tried to download the MSE restore tool, but I found myself with a message saying that I have no MSE

  Sorry, the MSE tool is to set the MSE when its broken.

• 8.1 window isn't downloading store as message is coming that you must enter the administrator account.

  8.1 window isn't downloading store as message is coming that you must enter the administrator account. I already use admin account. How to solve it?

  Original title: Update window 8

  You may not use the store from the built-in Administrator account (the one that is actually named 'administrator'), because this account is supposed to be a backup for emergencies only.

  If you create your own account with a different name (it may still be level administrator), you can use the store.

• "You need give the administrator permission to move this folder.

  So I recently downloaded a video file, which is currently sitting in my downloads folder. No matter when I try to move it to my documents, it says that I have to give the administrator permission to move the folder. Then it gives me the opportunity to continue, to jump or cancellation. When I hit continue, it will give me a pop-up that says that Windows needs my permission to run the program. I give him my permission, and then another pop up window will go up tells me access denied. If I hit try again, he fails again.

  My account is the only account on this computer and I am also the Director, because there was no way for me to not be, and he also says that I am when I look at my account information. But whenever I try to give him permission to continue, it tells me that I need administrator permission to continue.

  Also, this isn't the first time that I denied access to my own files even as administrator, after I tried to give the administrator permission to access. Is there something special I need to do as an administrator to actually have the ability to give permission?

  This is probably a permissions or ownership issue sust.  Right-click on the folder and click Properties and add you as a user authorized in its own right.  Go to advanced and do the same thing on this scren as well.  Then go into the property tab and take over the case.  If this does not work, you may need to do the same for the parent folder as well (and maybe it's the parent).  Finally, you should be able to access and move the folder.

  Here are a few guidelines and procedures dealing with permissions and ownership that can help:

  To view your permissions, right-click on the file/folder, click Properties, and check the Security tab.  Check the permissions you have by clicking on your user name (or group of users).  Here are the types of permissions, you may have: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/What-are-permissions.  You must be an administrator or owner to change the permissions (and sometimes, being an administrator or even an owner is not sufficient - there are ways to block access (even if a smart administrator knows these ways and can move them - but usually should not because they did not have access, usually for a very good reason).)  Here's how to change the permissions of folder under Vista: http://www.online-tech-tips.com/windows-vista/set-file-folder-permissions-vista/.  To add take and the issuance of right of permissions and ownership in the right click menu (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/05/21/take-and-grant-full-control-permissions-and-ownership-in-windows-7-or-vista-right-click-menu/.

  To resolve this problem with folders, appropriating the files or the drive (as an administrator) and give you all the rights.  Right-click on the folder/drive, click Properties, click the Security tab and click on advanced and then click the owner tab.  Click on edit, and then click the name of the person you want to give to the property (you may need to add if it is not there--or maybe yourself). If you want that it applies to subfolders and files in this folder/drive, then check the box to replace the owner of subcontainers and objects, and click OK.  Back and now there is a new owner for files and folders/player who can change the required permissions.  Here is more information on the ownership of a file or a folder: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/67717-take-ownership-file.html.  To add take ownership in the menu of the right click (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/add-take-ownership-to-explorer-right-click-menu-in-vista/.

  I hope this helps.

  This isn't a problem.
  It's a design to prevent unauthorized users to perform certain tasks.
  Installation and uninstallation are some of these tasks that require administrator rights.

  If you are not an administrator, or you do not have an administrator password, you can not install or uninstall.
  Not another way around it.

• "You must be logged in as an administrator to install this program" error when I AM logged on as administrator. possible problem with TrustedInstaller security

  I am logged in as administrator on the single computer.  I try to install Net Nanny, which claims to be compatible Windows 7.
  The first time I tried to install it I got the error, simply, 'access denied '.  After several attempts with the same error, I rebooted in Mode safe mode with network and then got the error that the Windows Installer Service is not accessible.  After some research, I discovered that Windows Installer is not available in safe mode.
  So I booted in Normal mode.  Logged as administrator.  Tried to click with the right button on the installer downloaded for Net Nanny and ran as administrator, the connection of the administrator.  Now I get the error, "You must be logged in as administrator to install this program."  I am.
  I closed all firewalls, anti-virus software AND turn off the UAC.  I checked the compatibility AND security for the download tab and it is configured to run as administrator and I tried to run in several modes of compatibility.  I still don't "You must be logged in as administrator to install this program."  No matter what I try, I still get this error.
  I used the command prompt, type msiexec.exe / unregister, and then msiexec/regserver.  No new results.  Still the same error.

  I called Net Nanny press SEVERAL times and they will know that this is a Windows problem, because this is the first time that they already got this error.  They had me to download another file on a mirror site.  Not always the same error.  People what I'm doing wrong?  I was able to successfully install other software.  Thanks for any help!

  UPDATE * I am researching always this.  This would be a TrustedInstaller security problem?  If this is the case, is it possible to fix the TrustedInstaller or turn it off?  The big question, is that I want to turn it off?  My first thought is 'no '.  However, this software is listed on the Microsoft site as being compatible with Windows 7.  Therefore, an application that is 3rd party that is accepted by Microsoft.  Wow, I'm confused.  Don't know what to do here.

  Hello carpetfresh,

  A test, I temporarily disable user account control and then see if you can install Net Nanny. If so, we know that UAC is what is causing the problem with the installation.

  1. access control panel user to the Start Menu-> Control Panel-> user accounts and of security for the family-> user account

  2. click on the settings of the user account controll link.

  3. move the slider to never notify

  4. click OK for the changes to take effect

  5 reset.

  Once you have correctly installed the Net Nanny, then back to the control panel and reactivate the UAC.

  Answer please come back and let us know.
